The idea

Polished auto-zoom screen recorders are Mac-only or charged by the year, and raw Windows screen captures are hard to follow. Solace Zoom adds the zooms for you, on Windows, for a one-time price.

Designed for Windows users who make product demos, tutorials, bug reports and README GIFs.

About this product

A screen recording shows how something works, but raw captures are hard to follow: the cursor is tiny, the important part is somewhere in a corner and nobody wants to spend an hour keyframing zooms in a video editor.

Solace Zoom records a region, a window or a whole screen and glides in on every click on its own, with smooth cursor movement, so the viewer always sees what you are doing. Press Ctrl+Shift+Z to zoom by hand. Afterwards the editor lets you trim, cut the fumbles, speed up idle stretches, add labels, arrows and highlights, pick a frame and background, and export an MP4 or GIF that is ready for a README, changelog, chat or product post.

Captions are made on your PC: the first time you ask for them, Solace Zoom downloads a 57 MB speech model from SolaceSoftware and checks its SHA-256. There is no account, telemetry or watermark. Apart from that optional download, the app only checks SolaceSoftware for signed updates.
